and Hums asked Peterson if be wanted to
buy a shotgun and told bim where one was
bidden, just below Rebert's, along the rail
road, in a pile of old Iron and ties. Peterson
and Tyiee went to the place and got the gun,
taking It to Peteison's home. In tho even
ing PeterHon's father saw in the paper an ac
count of the Ross burglary on Satur
day, and rightly surmised that this
gun was tho same oue stulun then,
At G o'clock this morning he brought the
gun to Officer Wilson's bouse on Mulberry
street and told the circumstances. This ollicer
and the Marshal hastened to Ilurns's home
on Western avenue and arrested him before
be kit the house. He admitted his guilt at
once but said he had been assisted by Dan
Courtney, another boy not yet iiulte twenty
years old, who has quite a reputattou In po
lice circles. Ilurns was patrolled in to the jail
and the ofllcers hastened to Courtney's home
on West High street just below the old Hay

The contract between the city nnd tho
Hptlngfleld (Ins Light and Coke Company for
lighting the streets ol the city, and for gas
lor the public buildings and oflicer, expires In
a few weeks and It becomes necessary Hint it
new contract atsouM Ira made within the next
month. The Gas Committee of Council held
a meclinglast night uutl It is possible If not
probable, that the matter will be brought up
in some form al the regular meeting of Coun
cil tonight.
The Kltctric Light Co. lias prepared a prop
osition nnd placed It In the hands of n mem
ber of Council, ready to be presented at tho
proper time, for (quipping and operating 1.1
elcclric lights, of tho 'Thomson-Houston ays
tern, now in use here for private custom, and
with the aid of an expert from the V.at, have
made a plat of the (cntral and principal por
tion ot tho city, suggesting a distribution of
these lights. The territory covered embrnccs
that portion of the "city lying between Foster
nnd Gallagher streets on the east, Yellow
Springs street on tho west, North stteet to
tho north, aud Mulberry street on the
south. II desired and thought best by Coun
cil, five additional lights can he located along
the rnilroads passing through town. This
plat is to acoompany the bid presented to
Council. The proposition is for a three or
five yeais' contract, and Is also for thirty,
thirty-five or fifty lamps, the proKrtlonate
cost for fifty lights being much less than for
thirty or thirty-five. The lamps, each of
which Is of 2,000 candle power, guaranteed,
are located, one at the intersection of streets,
square by square for the territory Included,
lighting in four directions, in the manner
now followed, by suspension over the center
of the roadways. It is not claimed
that this method of lighting is cheaper than
than gas, except as a greater amount of illu
mination is furnished for the same outlay of
pioney. The-company, with present facilities,
can run 00 or 70 strict lights, and 50 com
mercial qr private lights, nnd has the floor
space for another engine and dynamos tu run
ninety lights. An Invitation wu extended

Tim old liinn when vWIfcd recently
was hard at work, hut eonxeiifed to
j;lvo the writer a few p.iiticular.s in ru

"Now that," hu until, toililln to a
chnpidy lej: hnnjjitii; over tho lire, "l,e
loiisrs to it Newhuryiort yoiilij; lady,"
"That," continued the old liinn, "is
what's known us a knec-hcarlnj; leg. I
made it for her three yuan ago, when
she was about 1 1 yews old. she. lost
her k"' a little below tho knee so short
tlint.shu couldn't wear u soekct-liearinj;
leg, and so she was obliged to have a
knee hearing, to walk ou tho knee. Shu
hns grown a little since, and so 1 was
obliged to lengthen it out. I cut the.
leg in two al the, calf and put in npieco,
dovetailing it and fastening It with glue.
I've liLsIutln child's leg least at four
inches before it was given lit), when its
parents wcro poor and couldn't ull'ord a
new one."
"How did the young lady lose her
log?"
"I don't know; I didn't ask her. I
never ask any body, for simio are very
sensitive about .1," especially men. You
see a great many ineii lose their legs by
heing run over when they are drunk. I
do not believe I've aske'il a man that
ijiieitlon for ten years. Now heie,"
picUii'' up it leg in process of construc
tion, "legs don't weigh its much as
you'd think. Including all tliu iron
work, the leg wouldn't weigUwnore than
live pounds. I have jiiit niaile one for
a full-grown woman that weighed, ev
erything complete, including Hie upper
socket, exactly three pounds. I madu
it particularly light on account of her
being sickly. 1 want to show vou now
whe.e we get the durability. The steel
ankle-joints are, you see, sot in tho
Hood, and slightly" broader at tho anklo
than further up the leg, which makes
them sorter dovetailed. Tho bearing
dowu strain is borne in part hv them
anil partly hy an endless and very
powerful cord -some make It of silk,
but 1 always use linen -extending from
the heel of the loot over a bar in tho
calf of tliu leg, which Is hollow. The
cord relieves principally what is called
the nosing,' where the shin plays into
tliu foot.
"Tliu ankle-joints are, you see, con
nected by a steel bolt, which makes tho
leg particularly strong about the ankle,
where the most strain conies. Tliu toe
joint is located at the same place as in
'be natural foot, aud works with n
spring that brings tho too iuto plncu
alter each step. Tho wood? I use.
willow altogether, aud havo never used
any other. 1 havo shown you ono used
where the leg has been lost below tho
knee.
"Now this," producing another leg,
"is for one lost abovo the knee. It is
tliu s.iiiio iu every particular as tho
other, with tho addition of a wooden
socket to secure the stump. It works
at the knee in a very natural manner
on a simple bolt, with a spring extend
ing from tliu thin piece to tlio lower
part of the top socket. This spring
throws tho foot forward, iu walking,
llie minute tho too loaes the lloor.
"You will observe that if the ampu
tation is abovo the knee the leg must
bo held iu place by suspenders made of
a stout welt part elastic and part nou
elastic extending over tho shoulder.
If wllh a long stump below the knee,
the leather socket, laced above the
knee, is usually siilliciuiit.
"It, however, theru is but a short
slump below the kneo a strap is re
quired, livery weak point in a leg is
qieciully giiaideil, in some way, or
nllier; and when the steel ami wood
work are complete the leg is covered
rtilli eallskm similar to a iliinu-huad.
It is put on wet nnil dries to the leg,
very closely, adding a great deal to its
strength. Then that is sand-papered
down to a surface, and the hole-, iu the
calf opened out. They are for ventila
tion, but I doubt if they do any good.
I always put them in, because "a good
many .ire of the notion they are. Then
the leg is painted. r u-o alcoholic
paint, made of gum ami dry lead. Tho
miiiuto it strikes water it Is set, and you
can't wash it oil' with anything except
alcohol.
"I'll show you a leg," producing ft
particularly lifelike one, tho foot of
which bore a shou anil stocking, "that
has been painted seventeen years, and
Is, you see, iu pretty good condition."
"What do you consider your most
singular case?"
"That of a llttloboy that lives near
the old reservoir. "Ho was brought to
mo in his father's arms when ho was
1G or 17 mouths old, and had never
walked a step. 1 didn't dare to touch
htm, ho was so young and tender, aud
his father took him to Dr. Shaw. Tho
doctor advised him to get n limb right
oil', so as to prevent hip disease on tho
other side. That had never occurred
to me. The doctor's opinion took all
the responsibility away from mo; and
so 1 went to work at once, and madu a
leg for tho boy. Ho learned to walk
with It, anil walks and runs with It
now so well that you'd hardly kuow
he'd lost a leg. 1 havo customers all
over the country one in Saginaw,
Mich., and another iu Leavenworth,
Kan., aud at least a dozen in Nova
S';otl,i. Iu tho Boston custom-hotlsu 1
huso quile a number."
"How long will a leg wear?"
"It is a question often asked me, and
a very hard out) to answer. I hae a
customer that has worn a leg for tweu-ty-ono
years, mid 1 know men that
would not wear a leg two years. it is
just as it is Willi everything else. Some
lake care of them, and others stave
them out very quickly.
"Tho gowriimoiit you know, allows
soldiers a now leg every live years, or
$7ii. That looks us if they thought live
years was the average, but good legs
will, iu my opinion, average at least
eight years. The price the governiueut
sels on 'em is about tho lowest they can
be made for, though hiiihi manufactur
ers ask twice as much as that.
"lluw long does it take to imil.o a
leg? Well, I'll tell you. In war
times they said if a man made a leg In
eight days they was satisfied." Huston

Hancock mid the mayor of Atlanta ou
one of llio southern railroads. Gen.
Hancock and tho mayor, who was a
German, were sitting toguther, nnd, in
a conversation relating to public men,
tho latter remarked:
"(leu. Hancock, isn't it strango that
tho great republican party should
make a president of such a" man as
Urant?"
Hancock waited a mutuant and then
deliberately answerbd:
"(Jen. (irant was a very superior olli
cer. He won his position by merit, nnd
hard and successful fighting, and was
worthy of it. If you think strange of
the republicans for making n president
of him, what do you think of the demo
crats who noiniiialod me?"
Several weeks later tho doctor was
in South Carolina, and had occasion to
relate the foregoing incident to a prom
inent state ollicial who was a member
of Hen. Leu's stalU Tliu ollicial re
sponded: "Doctor, that reminds mo of d i
Lee's opinion of your great union gen
eral, uttered iu my preseucu in reply to
a disparaging remark on tho part of a
person who referred to (irant us a 'mil
itary accident, who had no distinguish
ing merit, but had achieved success
through a combination of fortuuato cir
cumstances.' (Suti. l.eo looked into tho
critic's eye steadily aud said: 'Sir, your
opinion is a very poor compliment to
inc. We all thought Richmond, pro
tecled as it was by our splendid fortifi
cations uiul defended by our army of
veterans, could not betaken. YutUraut
turned Ids face to our capital, and
never turned it away until wo had sur
rendered. Now, I have carefully
searched the military records of both
ancient mid modurii history, and havo
never found Grant's superior as a gen
eral. I doubt if hii superior can bo
found iu all history.' "
These two atiecilotcs are significant
just now, not only because of tliu great
confederate general's estimate of Grant,
but because the first gives fresh proof
of the loyal and ahvay consistent latti

Is The Sun ItlueV
It may be asked, What suggested tliu
idea thaf tho sun may bu bluu rather
than any other color? My own atten
tion was first directed this way many
years ago when measuring the heat
nnd light from different parts of tho
sun's disk. It is known that the sun
has an atmosphcro of its own, which
tempers its heat, and by cutting oil'
certain radiations and not others pro
duces the spectral lines wo are all fa
miliar with. These linos wo customa
rily study In connection with tho ab
sorbing vapors of sodium, iron etc.,
which produces thorn; but my own at
tention was particularly given to tlio
regions of absorption, or to the color
it caused; and I luiiud that the sun's
body must bo deeply bluish, and that
it would shed bluu light, except for this
apparently colorless solar atmosphere,
which really plays tho part of a red
dish veil, letting a little of tliu blue ap
pear on tho sun's disk where it is
thinnest, and staining tliu edge red, so
that to delicate tests the center of tliu
sun is a paio aquamarine, ami itsedgu
a garncL The effect I found tu bo so
importnnt that, if this all but invisible
solar atmosphere were diminished by
but a third part, the temperature of
tho llritisb Islands would rise abovu
that of tho torrid zone; and this direct
ed my attention to the great practical
importance of studying tho action of
our own terrestrial atmosphere on tho
sun, and tho antecedent probability
that our own air was also and inde
pendently making the really blue sun
into nn apparently whitu one. 1'rujis

We can not tell exactly what was the "de
moniac possession" under which people ot
former ages sq dreadfully suflcred. What
ever it was, it could not have been worse
than neuralgia In the head. Mr. J. C. Kieff,
ot Newark, N. J., was tormented lor eight
years with this, but writes that it yielded to
one bottle of Brown's Iron Bitters. What's
the use ot suffering? It cures dyspepsia,
weakness, malaria, liver and kidney com
plaints. Rev. A. E. Wagner has given np his house
on Clifton avenue, and will go with his wife
at once to her mother's residence at Carey,
Ohio. It was reported last evening that Mrs.
Wagner was quite seriously ill over the dis
astrous affair. Her mother has been with her
for several days hero.
LOCAL NOTICES.
This is the age of steam and electricity.
Space is annihilated and points thousands of
miles apart are placed by the wonderful
mechanism of the day almost within shaking
distance). A few days ago an order was re
ceived from Havana, Cutia, from I'. P. Itoiubo,
a wholesale druggist of that place, for a lot ot
the celebrated Mishier's Herb Hitters, and iu
less than a week the goods were In his store.
This will show how completely space has
lieen overcame by the Ingenuity of man and
at the same lime will give our renders nn
idea ol how tar the fame of the bitters has
spread. For dyspepsia, Indigestion, kidney
and liver diseases it is without a rival.

With the opening of the season of outdoor
sports comes the time of trouble for the poor
victims of liny Fever and Rose Cold. For
them flowers have no odor, nnd the summer
